Larks for me... ------------- He neither drank, smoked, nor rode a bicycle. Living frugally, saving his money, he died early, surrounded by greedy relatives. It was a great lesson to me -- John Barrymore |

Very difficult decision , two of my top albums in all times. But I'll vote in "Selling England By The Pound" !!! |

| Oh, this is cruel. These both are really too great, but both have a bit that doesn't work as well for me. I'll give a slight preference to Selling England. |

This is a hard one for me. I love both albums equally, for very different reasons, moods, emotions, etc. Since there's not a "both" option, I will not vote.

Easily LTIA. Fascinating album. I always preferred Lamb to SEBTP.

Selling England. Not the slightest sign of contest here (though the voting results so far reflect otherwise). -------------

LTIA was more revolutionary for its time, no slam to SEBTP, another outstanding album. ------------- I am not a Robot, I'm a FREE MAN!! |

same--SEBTP has a special place in my heart--think the atmosphere is magic from beginning to end--plus it has the best long prog guitar solo---and the best long keyboard solo in prog.

| LTIA is one of the best LP's I've ever heard. That lineup was KC's finest. |

| Very close for me but I voted for tongues since it's my favorite KC album. I still think some of it is some of the most wacked out music ever made. |

SEbtP. I much prefer the live versions of the LTiA songs, though Exiles is pure perfection in both studio and live settings  ------------- https://wytchcrypt.wixsite.com/mutiny-in-jonestown" rel="nofollow - Mutiny in Jonestown : Progressive Rock Since 1987 |

I too prefer the live versions of many of Crimson's songs. From Larks Tongues I find both Exiles and Easy Money much better live (from Collectable King Crimson vol 1, Exiles from Ausbury, and Easy Money from Mainz). But The Talking Drum and Larks part 2 I find much better on Studio... mostly because on those ones I do love Muir's contributions, and the violin sounds better. As for Larks part 1, I never really warmed up to it until I heard the live version from the new line-up (Easy Money is very nice with them too). |

Not an easy choice... ...But LTIA for me. SEBTP is almost perfect, but "More Fool Me" really brings it down for me. The production on LTIA is spotty as hell, but the strength of the experimentation more than makes up for it (plus that style inspired hoards of experimental metal bands). ------------- "I am so prog, I listen to concept albums on shuffle." -KMac2021 |

Larks' despite being dynamic to the point of ridiculousness is still pretty cool. I have a difficult time with much of Gabriel era Genesis.

Firth of Fifth is killer....nothing quite like that on LTIA.....though I love KC and as I said in another thread...prolly my favorite prog band.....but I have to go with Selling England here on the strength of Firth. ------------- One does nothing yet nothing is left undone. Haquin |

Larks 2, Exiles and Saturday versus Epping The highlights of both albums. At least England has more good music though. Cinema is pretty good. Moonlit is hit and miss although has cool parts. Firth is overdramatic and depressing and usually skip it  England is better album ------------- All I like is prog related bands beginning late 60's/early 70's. Their music from 1968 - 83 has the composition and sound which will never be beaten. Perfect blend of jazz, classical, folk and rock. |
